werner added a comment to T5597: First 8 bytes of cache item left in clear in memory after decryption..

And well, the context area of the handle is also wiped at gcry_cipher_close time. Thus any standard use of aeswrap (open,encrypt/decrypt,close) is not affected.

calestyo added a comment to T5554: support symmetric encryption with multiple passphrases.

At first I've had simply tried to give multiple --symmetric options (which of course didn't work).

werner triaged T5554: support symmetric encryption with multiple passphrases as Normal priority.

I have no clear idea on how to style the UI for this feature. Technically it is simple but we need top query several passphrases. loopback mode with a list of passphrases might be easiest way to do that.
